Types of Fistula: There Are Four Types Of Fistula Intersphincteric Fistula:The tract begins in the space between the internal and external sphincter muscles and opens very close to the anal opening. Transphincteric Fistula: The tract begins in the space between the internal and external sphincter muscles or in the space behind the anus. It then crosses the external sphincter and opens an inch or two outside the anal opening. These can wrap around the body in a U shape, with external openings on both sides of the anus (called a horseshoe fistula). Suprasphincteric Fistula: The tract begins in the space between the internal and external sphincter muscles and turns upward to a point above the Puborectal muscle, crosses this muscle, then extends downward between the puborectal and levator ani muscle, and opens an inch or two outside the anus. Extrasphincteric Fistula: The tract begins at the rectum or sigmoid colon and extends downward, passes through the levator ani muscle, and opens around the anus. These fistulas are usually caused by an appendiceal abscess, diverticular abscess, or Crohn’s disease Symptoms: Pain and swelling around the anus Frequent anal abscesses Foul-smelling bloody drainage from the anal opening Bleeding along with stool Pain during bowel movements Fever, chills, and fatigue Causes: Trauma to the anal tissues TOP Infection in the anal gland Radiation from cancer treatment Crohn’s disease Sexually transmitted disease Tuberculosis Diverticulitis Cancer Diagnosis: The best fistula doctor in Chennai is Pinak Dasgupta, who uses various advanced diagnostic tests to diagnose anal fistula.

Treatment of Fistula By Dr. Pinak: Fistula treatment in Chennai is done with different methods such as laser and surgical methods. Each treatment method has its advantages and disadvantages. The goal of any surgery for a fistula in the anus is to relieve the fistula or protect the anal sphincter muscles, which can cause incontinence if damaged. Dr. Pinak Dasgupta at GEM Hospital chooses the best treatment option as per discussion with patients. Looking for the best doctor for fistula treatment in Chennai, Internationally recognized surgeons at Dr.Pinak Dasgupta GEM Hospital, Chennai offers holistic treatment for complex fistula with minimal recurrence rate and almost zero incontinence rate. Fistula treatment options are below Types of Fistula Treatment: Fistulotomy: TOP TOP The most common type of surgery for anal fistulas is a fistulotomy. This involves cutting along the whole length of the fistula to open it up so it heals as a flat scar. A fistulotomy is the most effective treatment for many anal fistulas, although it’s usually done in simple fistula where the risk of incontinence is less. This procedure is not suitable in complex fistula and in cases where the risk of incontinence is considered too high, sphincter preserving procedures are recommended. Dr. Pinak Dasgupta Fistula Specialist Surgeon in Chennai uses a LASER as an adjunct to Fistulectomy to minimize the risk of damage to the sphincter muscle. Thus, with the added advantage of Laser, the chances of post-operative pain will be negligible Ligation of the intersphincteric Fistula Tract (LIFT): The ligation of the intersphincteric fistula tract (LIFT) procedure is the best treatment for fistulas that pass through the anal sphincter muscles, where a fistulotomy would be too risky. This is a Highly efficient procedure with almost no recurrences or incontinence. Dr. Pinak Dasgupta, a well-known colorectal surgeon in Chennai, specializes in complex fistula surgery.
